Named
after DeWitt Clinton, the Governor of New York State during the
1820s, the town of Dewitt has seen its share of setbacks. In 1930, a great fire
swept through the downtown business district, destroying buildings and
devastating the community. While business stagnated here, residential
development continued to make DeWitt into the bedroom community of today. This
small community shows their love for their resident pups, and offers three
veterinarians to help care for the pooches of Dewitt.

Sports Park is a wide open grassy
space with a few benches that is often used for sporting events. The large open
space makes a pup-tastic walk for Fido. There's plenty of space for good
exercise and a round of fetch before you finish. Along the banks of the Looking
Glass River, the 5.2-acre Looking Glass Riverfront Park offers access to the
meandering river, picnic tables, grills, canoe access, and a river observation
deck. Your pup will love the river frontage with the many smells to explore.
There's plenty of green space for a walk around the park as well.

Stay at the American Inn and Suites
Lansing at Dewitt where they welcome two pups up to 50 lbs. for an additional
fee. Enjoy Dewitt with your pup; you might just decide to stay!
